That still doesn't take away from the fact that they won 88 (88!) games in a row.

UConn schedules as many of the top teams as they possibly can each year and come out on top every time, so while women's basketball doesn't have much depth, they're playing the best of what's out there to play. They have far more talent than the teams they play, but anyone who watches sports knows that the most talented team doesn't always win.

I think it's a great accomplishment, and I'm glad that they're getting their moment in the spotlight. I certainly don't see why someone would be so bothered by it that they'd feel the need to start a thread about it on a football forum.

This. Although I've got a pretty good idea of why
